No hits on Slack for a new owner. I marked Threat Level as abandoned so it’ll be on the Claim Team list. I left the password protection on so we can have some say on who joins the league. Also we will need a second commissioner. Anyone interested let me know.
-
Still looking for an owner for Threat Level Midnight’s team. Reach out if you know someone who might be interested.
-
Ok sorry for the confusion. I am in 6 leagues and a few are $100 leagues. My message board post mistakenly said the $100 fee was due by Jan. 31st. For this league the $50 fee is due by Jan. 31st. Carry on…nothing to see here.
-
Mudville if you have an email can you forward it to me…? pclark77@gmail.com
-
I never sent an email saying that the fees were going up. That’s not up to me. It would have to be a vote and everyone would have to be onboard.
-
Yep. So there is no increased league fee per your other email.

Guys as far as I know this is still a $50 league. When I click on renew it wants to charge me $50 from my PayPal. So no increased fees to my knowledge. Does that better answer your question Mudville?
-
Top 3 teams get paid in all leagues above the $20 leagues. Those top 3 get more money. So no not more teams.
-
Does the increased league fee include payout for more teams?

We are exactly two weeks away from the cut deadline. Please take some time to make your cuts, make some trades, and gear up for the 2023 season. Also the $100 Ottoneu fee is due before Feb. 1st so make that payment and renew your team. If you aren’t going to continue this year it would be helpful if you could let us know sooner rather than right at the deadline. Good luck.

In honor of acquiring Reid Detmers I’ve changed my name to honor his wipeout curveball.
-
The open team has been filled. Thanks Strikeout Saviours for finding an owner.
-
Guys Thunder Gun Express just sent me a message asking for his team to be marked as abandoned. He said he can’t dedicate the time to it that he feels the league deserves. So we have an opening. If anyone knows someone let us know.
-
Keeper deadline is January 31st and there are no abandoned teams.
-
do we have any abandoned teams?

when is the keeper deadline?

It is a default date. We can set the date to whatever works best for us all.

I hope the draft date and time is a default. All my ottoneu leagues are the same.

Thank you! Happy to be apart of this league and getting to know and play against everyone! I can’t wait for the season to begin!
-
Welcome to the league Expos! Thanks for getting the arbitration done.
-
Thanks commish.
I look forward to getting to know everyone and talking some trades to reshape the roster.
-
El Ocho has been claimed. Welcome Strikeout Saviours to the league!
-
Guys arbitration is open. Please take the time to use your allotted $25 towards player/teams who you think need price adjustments. Once arbitration is over we will be able to make cuts/trades and prepare for the 2023 season.
-
I’m sorry to see you leave El Ocho but I completely understand. Would you mind doing arbitration when it opens tomorrow and then I’ll mark your team as abandoned. It makes it easier if we can assure all teams arbitrate. Not sure how long it will take to replace you. Good luck!
-
I immensely enjoyed playing, but I am going to quit next year to find out what the extra time of living without Ottoneu will bring me. A sincere thanks to all for a great experience; you are great league mates! If needed, I could do arbitration. If not, please abandon my team…. Thanks!
-
Congrats SHOTANI on a well deserved victory, and congrats to Threat in second place!
-
Guys thanks for a great season! Please read the End of Season Megathread at the top of this page to familiarize yourself with the off-season. Arbitration starts on Oct. 15 and the 2023 season will officially commence. Anyone not coming back please let us know.
Cheers and be safe!

Looks like everyone is back to their proper roster limits. Thanks alot for taking care of that!
-
There are several teams that are over the limit of allotted players allowed on the roster. Usually the rule is to be legal within 48 hours of becoming illegal. The season is still in progress and having every potential player available in the player pool might be helpful to those in the playoffs. Also it’s my understanding that hoarding players going into the offseason is not allowed. Please make your cuts if you are one of the teams that is currently over the limit.
-
Also if I’m understanding things correctly the finals are two weeks long. Each team gets 10 starts for week 1 and 10 starts for week 2. Week 2 extends through Wednesday of week 3 due to the delayed start of the season and the mlb schedule having to be modified. Those second 10 starts will cover that week as well so plan your starts out carefully. Read Slack under the Ottoneu baseball tab. Niv addresses this.
-
Guys the matchups for this next round of the playoffs are myself vs. Threat Level Midnight in the Championship round. And Mudville vs. El Ocho for the 3rd place finish. There is money involved so pay attention and good luck to all!
-
Playoffs start today! Thank you to all owners for a great year. I thought things went pretty smooth and everyone participated and did their best to compete. Good luck to the playoff teams!
-
Alonso, Iglesias and Rizzo up for grabs for some younger players. Hit me up

Not sure what I was thinking with my $3 bid now haha

Seems like someone miscalculated????

Some big baty bids
-
I would think someone might want Harper for a playoff run. Hit me up
-
Think fair to say it is selling season for me. Cole and JRam available. Hit me with some messages/offers
-
~hat tip gif~ thank you…now cut something good for us to fight over!
-
Brain fart of the year. I thought I was on my team page and I started auctions for Barnes and Strasburgh. I then realized I was looking at Threat Level’s team 😑. I can’t even blame it on being drunk…
-
Looking to turn Cole into another SP and a solid bat. One of Rizzo or Voit just sitting on my bench so open to offers on either of them.
-
I think Ian Happ’s value has been firmly set at $8
-
Slow market for trades - Story and Grandal are available, as is anyone on my team for a fair and equitable exchange...
-
Willson Contreras available if anyone needs C or Util help.
-
Now if we were voting in Slack…I’d bet a large sum would prefer the side with Riley and Haden (as would I!), but You also gotta take whatever Slack says with a grain of salt because there can be a lot of sheep on Slack.
-
I think it can be scary when I see a big trade like this…but it doesn’t strike me as one worth vetoing. If you think it’s unfair then I would try to get an explanation from both sides to explain why they accepted. If they can provide a scenario that proves no collusion and/or reasoning for making the trade, then all good by me.
-
I think this trade is fair for both sides
-
Should have finished with the true outcome of a trade can’t be judged immediately. They take time to develop.
-
I think it’s really tough to tell another owner how he/she should value players and build their team. I personally would only use the veto if:
1) There is provable collusion btw the owners.
2) The trade is so egregious that it disrupts the balance of the league.
I don’t think that this trade falls under either of those options.
Trades in Ottoneu are the hardest thing to get used to. We all make good ones and bad ones. The true outcome of a
-
Trade veto….not to be that guy but I voted to veto the trade between Dertroit and Thunder. I’m new to the league and trying not to make people angry but I see this trade as too one sided. Thunder is giving up his best hitter and pitcher and giving Detroit more cap room. Thunder isn’t even getting salary cap relief. He gets 1 prospect. IIMO it’s early in the season for rebuilding but that’s on each manager to decide. I veto as I don’t see an upside. Am I missing something?
